TL;DR
- Google is working on a change to Android’s early boot process that improves how quickly kernel modules are loaded.
- This change has resulted in a 30% reduction in loading time for the Pixel 10, according to a Google engineer.
- As a result of this change, the Pixel 10 and other Android devices should boot up slightly faster, though it’s unclear how much of a difference it’ll make.

This change is in AOSP. So, should be accessible in future updates to other phones.
Yup I would also expected this to be honest.
Ok but when was the last time you turned your phone off? Even reboots are few and far between
Weekly reboot is recommended to knock off some memory recident nasties and trackers and clean up memory.
GrapheneOS reboots often for updates and security against cold boot storage attacks.
But always at night, so boot time isn’t too relevant.
I rebooted mine yesterday for a security update.
About every 3 days or it gets wonky.
Newly setup too, about 2 months ago, Android 13
That would be nice. My S23 boots up slower than my old S8 ever did.
